As Gideon made his way to Phoenix Mountain, little did he know that Jagoan had already received a text message from Zachary.

The message contained just one sentence, announcing the opening of a new store next month.

Jagoan wasted no time and immediately responded with an enthusiastic reply, using the secret code he and Zachary had agreed upon.

The opening of a new store was code for fresh tombs to be plundered in the circle of grave robbers. They used this method to communicate their objectives in a discreet manner, so as not to raise suspicion from individuals with tender hearts who might misinterpret their cooperation as a harmless association.

As soon as Jagoan received the news, he knew that the Thunderstruck Wood had been sold, prompting him to call Isaac right away.

Within ten minutes, Isaac sent several videos to Jagoan, showcasing the surveillance footage from the airport’s arrival hall and near Zachary’s booth on Antique Street. It was in these videos that Jagoan laid eyes on Gideon for the first time.

Despite his unimposing appearance, the man in his sixties emanated a certain amiability that made it difficult for anyone to perceive him as threatening, even in a bustling environment.

Jagoan took note of Gideon’s appearance and quietly mused to himself, “I reckon this man must be one of the four Marshals of the Warriors Den. He’s the one who purchased my Thunderstruck Wood. I bet he’s itching to test it out soon.”

“Am I right?”

Suddenly, a loud noise erupted from Phoenix Mountain in the southwest of Aurous Hill, capturing everyone’s attention.

A thunderbolt struck the valley with incredible force, causing a massive explosion that reverberated throughout the entire city.
